  1. I'd be interested in their retro votes too. I think we deserve some examples
  2. You are probably right, but for the first time in years, I will take the UNDER and feel pretty good about it. At least 3 of these guys should make 30+ starts. I hope.....
  3. The pattern shows exactly what Ryan and Molitor are thinking, and I don't disagree. In both the #5 Starter and the CF positions, they are giving the first shot (And I expect a very short leash) to players who, if they fail, will be moved to other teams- either traded or released. If Milone doesn't work out quickly, I bet he won't be with the Twins by July. It the CF platoon doesn't do well enough, at least one of them will be gone by then too. They need to clear out a logjam of "possible" starting pitchers and outfielders. If you begin the season with the young guys and they don't start well, you have less options because if you don't bring Malone or Pelf North, you lose them. If you get rid of the veterans, and the young guys struggle, the tendency is to stick too long with them. It becomes a confidence issue. if you older guys struggle, you move on from them... Having said all of that, I have always felt like the Twins were too slow to bring guys up and give them a shot. Sometimes guys start out hot like Santana and Vargas...
